Orderly dog today, took the rough exercise at 5:15. Church parade at 9. Bathed after stables; we changed our place this time and bathed from an old derelict barge where we got great fun diving.
A mail came from home this afternoon, lots of news.
Enemy aeroplanes bombed Port Said last night and did, according to Osman, a good deal of damage in the Arab quarter.
In an intelligence report sent round to us this evening, an agent reports that at El Hassana the Turks have a force of about three thousand men, composed of Turks, Syrians, and Arab camelmen, also some Howitzer guns. They are under the command of Sami Bey.
